Advice for the Starbucks goer

Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

Today I met someone at Starbucks.  I ordered a grande java chip frappucino (sometimes will get mint mocha chip, but the chip is the essential element here).  With the grande you use the smaller straw, which seems intuitive.  However, while we are talking I notice nothing is coming up the straw anymore.  I slurp with a little more gusto, trying not to make a dumb face or make a lot of noise, but to no avail.  However, the top of the straw has sucked in a bit of my lip and sticks to it so I have to pull it off.  Slightly embarassed, I pull the straw off.  Low and behold there is a chip clogging the bottom of my straw.  I get that out and proceed.  Well two minutes later the same thing happens again.  Then a third time.  We’re laughing about it at this point, and I decide to get the jumbo sized straw that is usually only for the venti sized cups.  However the opening is larger and I can effectively slurp up all the drink, albeit from a foot away from the cup.

So the lesson, starbucks, cut down the size of your "chips" or make wider straws fit for the grande and tall cups.  I bid you a good day.

Move On……

Do i have to let go????
minsan, iniisip natin na mag
let go…
na mag move on…
iniisip pa lang natin, nasasaktan na
tayo…
what if we walk or talk to finally let go…
badtrip!!! masakit di ba?
it breaks your heart even more kung
alam mo
sa sarili mo na, sobrang love mo sya…
like, you’ve sacrificed a lot!!!
marami ka nang nagawa na di mo
nagagawa sa iba…
pero di niya lahat nakita yun!
he’s/she’s so blind to see and so deaf to
hear!!!
why? ewan ko ba…kung bakit may mga
tao na…
sobrang… manhid!
or probably nagmamanhid manhidan lang!
hindi mo tuloy alam if you should let go
of your
feelings for him once and for all…
as i’ve said…
mas madali siguro mag-let go if you know
he doesn’t give a thing about you…
syempre kung meron…
hindi niya pababayaan na mawala ka…
but if you think…ok lang sa kanya yun…
don’t be a fool!
let go…
how would you fight for the one you love?
mahal mo nga pero habang ipinaglalaban
mo naman siya…
sinasaktan ka naman!
what are we to do?
